A sad day at Universal Studios
Only the lonely
Is the way I feel tonight
March 22 was supposed to be a happy day. This was a day that the Florida Coaster Club arranged to ride on Mardi Gras parade floats at Universal Studios in Orlando. I was very excited to ride one. In fact, I was the one who came up with the idea. I almost ran away because a woman was coming.
Tia (ala luvdisny) calls her Miss Orlando, which will be suitable for this report. I had met her from the Florida Coaster Club in November 2000. It took me a long time to finally have to courage to express my feelings to her. I sent her flowers with a note that said From a secret admirer secretcoasterman@yahoo.com. We exchanged a few e-mails and finally I revealed my picture. She knew who I was! That was surprising, since I only attended two events with her. We exchanged e-mails. We met at Sea World and Islands of Adventure. We had fun and shared a few hugs. It seemed like we were in a relationship. She didnt send too much e-mail because she was busy. She works as a nurse and seemed to work seven days a week.
I accepted that she was busy and was willing to work around her busy schedule. Yet, I could feel her slipping away. I would try to set up a meet and put in the e-mails I will give you the kiss that I owe you, but she kept on canceling because she had to work. I accepted her career, but she never replied to the I will give you the kiss that I owe you in the e-mails. I even ended some e-mails with Love , but no reply to those either.
Finally, I had to know if she felt the same about me as I did with her. A week before the Florida Coaster Club Mardi Gras meet, I sent her a package of candy with a note saying, I love you (although I dont know if you feel the same way). I received no reply. Even the day of the meet, I didnt get any e-mail reply. I was nervous about going, but I knew that I had to. I had to grab this opportunity to ride a Mardi Gras float. I did it two years ago and had the best time.
I met the club at the designated gathering place. I saw her half-brother and he didnt say anything about the candy, e-mail, flowers, or anything I sent her. I saw her come in the distance it was Miss Orlando.
Oh pretty woman
Walking down the street
Pretty woman
The kind Id like to meet
Behind her was a man. I wondered if he was a friend from the hospital. He looked like a fellow nurse or even a doctor. I wanted to ask, but then I saw it. It was the unkindest cut of them all.
Below I saw you whisper to another man
Who held the lever who could bring me down
Hed stop the world from turning at your command
Its always something cruel that laugher drowns
Id see him putting his arm around her and touching her thigh. They were getting kind of intimate. I had a hard time believing it, but he must be her boyfriend? When I realized that, it felt like someone tore out my heart and stomped on it in glee. I felt like I was part of a cruel joke.
Tender nights before they fly
Send falling stars that seem to cry
Youre baby doesnt want you anymore
Its over
It breaks your heart in two
To know shes been untrue
All the happiness I felt at Universal Studios melted away and I felt pain. I tried to keep from crying or screaming in agony. I didnt want to make a scene.
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello
You wished me well
You couldnt tell
That Ive been crying over you
Crying over you
Then you said so long
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
Its hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying
I wanted to run straight to the exit, but I had a job to do. I rode the Mardi Gras float. It seemed like everyone else had a great time. I tried to, but I felt something was missing. I had a big emotional hole to fill and I only had two bricks to do it. The worst thing is that she never acknowledged my lovely writings in e-mails or letters. She didnt even introduce me to him. They left Universal Studios and headed to the Hard Rock Café. As I left Universal Studios to the parking lot, there was a crowd of people walking around me. Yet, I felt like the loneliest man in the universe.
This was the night my love life became a Roy Orbison song.
There goes my baby
There goes my heart
Theyre gone forever
So far apart
Only the lonely
About a week later, I e-mailed Miss Orlando about the guy she hung out with (I never mentioned boyfriend). She said that the guy was a close out-of-town friend and nothing more. I made a mistake and misread things. Still, seeing Miss Orlando with another man seemed to put things in perspective. I felt her slipping away fast. She didnt feel the same way I did as I with her. I sent her a few more e-mails, but she soon stopped responding. Her silence was loud. I could take a hint. She wasnt interested in me anymore. All I really get from her are jokes from a mailing list. I let the relationship end without another word.
In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams youre mine all the time
Were together
In dreams
Then I realized that maybe I should spend some time to myself. I should stop working so hard to find a girlfriend. I tried the personal ads and I failed. I was pushing myself too hard. It was time to slow down and take time for myself. I can go on roller coaster riding vacations and not worry about a girlfriend who wont ride the big coasters. If someone comes along and it seems right, Id do a relationship, but I wont pound the pavement for one.
That was how I felt before I met DocRafiki

People she is telling this to s my friends and people I work with for two years. So, I guess the moral is Theme parks hurt, and nobody should get hurt, I think theme parks should put signs up out front stating that "no 1s feelings are allowed to get hurt" afterall we have signs for line jumping
wow, that was touching!
